I have been a JL fan for quit some time. Have heard some good things about these 6x9 n just had to get me pair for the corolla. They sound really nice very good detail in the music gives a warm feeling when u listen to them. These might be entry level speakers,but you can't beat them for the price.

I was JL Audio's absolute biggest fan until I bought these speakers. The highs sound pretty good and the bass gets about as low as you expect a 6x9 to get. BUT, the mids to me were absolutely horrible! On some songs, they were ok, but if anybody but a woman is in the song, the voice is inaccurate and scratchy. Also, although the bass CAN get semi deep, it is not clean bass at all. My previous speakers were Kenwood 6x9's and I can honestly say they were every bit as good as these for half the price. OVERALL: These speakers are a step up from factory and better than the speakers you can buy at Wal-Mart. But believe me, for the price, you can find a lot better sound quality speakers (I have). Needles to say, I sent these speakers back within days of installing them. JL Audio's door speakers are not on par with their other products.

These speakers sound great when paired with a 300w Slash V2 amp. They are pretty powerful and have a nice crisp sound. However, they aren't very durable, after about 3-4 months I had one of the tweeters explode.

I have 4 of these in my 300c. They are all installed behind the back seat head rests. On an orion hcca1000.4 these things are crazy loud and can be heard clearly from a long ways away. Mids/lows are incredible compared to any 6x9 i've ever heard personally.
